Order of Business

Terry Leyden (Fianna Fail)
It is appropriate that Members of this House put forward reasoned arguments to the Minister in particular cases. If the Government charges €10 for everybody leaving Dublin Airport and €2 for all other airports, it would bring in the same amount of money and would eliminate the anomaly between airports based on how close they are to England. It is a simple suggestion and I believe the Minister will respond favourably to it.
I commend the Opposition on raising the issue of the price of petrol and diesel, an issue which I raised last week. The old Fine Gael website on rip-off Ireland is out of date and my advice is that it should be updated.
